What it is: Hyper-focusing on the calories in your meals does not create healthy eating patterns, as the science is more complex than most people realize. Previously, we broke down the process required to alter body composition through the Calories In Calories Out equation. But we wanted to clarify that a calorie is not necessarily just a calorie when it comes to the lived environment. Scientifically, a nutritional calorie is the energy unit we receive from food. Carbohydrat

What is it: Confusion often surrounds weight as you may feel unable to control it and are receiving mixed messages from diet culture. One such question is, ‘Can you damage your metabolism?’ The straightforward answer is yes. However, unless it is due to a metabolic disorder like type 1 diabetes, it is not a permanent change to your metabolic process. Changes due to weight gain/loss, muscle gain/loss, or any other shifts in body status are not permanent but may take time and e

What it is: There are two main types of fat within the human body. White adipose tissue (WAT) is a yellow substance with a simple cellular structure. However, it is an efficient energy storage system and an incredibly complex endocrine organ that secretes hormones and bioactive molecules known as adipokines. A healthy amount of fat is vital as it cushions our organs and insulates body heat. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is not as prevalent as WAT, but it has unique metabolic a

We caught up with Apeiron Life Founder Geoff’s Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) experience as he tested out our new program, which helps you to monitor your blood glucose levels in real-time. It’s a great tool to allow you insight into how food, sleep, and movement affect your blood glucose levels. Geoff decided to explore the CGM experience to gain further insight into his personal reactions to specific foods and how different types of movement could play a role in his h

What it is: Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) involves wearing a small compact device that measures your blood glucose (BG) levels, giving real-time feedback and allowing you to make choices directly aligned with optimized health. Our blood glucose response is highly individualized, so a CGM can provide insight into responses and patterns to assist in developing a personalized nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle program. Understanding your blood glucose trends can help you m
